the penalty learning curve

[maybetwisted]

There are still tickets available for the championship final on the 25th April!

Buy tickets now!I've mentioned before on this journal how steep the learning curve can be in roller derby. First, you need to learn to fall properly. Then, once you have sorted falling, you've got to get the skating down, and after that you need to get the blocking

I too have had to create an account just to leave you a comment.
It's so good to hear that someone else has also experienced the same feelings I've had whilst scrimmaging.
I have been skating with Central City Rollergirls for a several months now and am starting to take part in the scrimmaging practices. Although, I'm totally enjoying it, there are times when I feel like I'm so lost and haven't a clue what's going on around me!
It's so good to hear that you too felt like that in the past and have now improved...maybe there's hope for me yet??

Keep up the hard work and thanks for your inspiring words.

aw, thanks :)

I have been 'plateauing' for bloody ages, I was starting to wonder if I'd got as good as I was ever going to be.

I think the learning curve is probably more a series of steps than a curve, perhaps I should change my graph!
